Am I correct in saying that the return trip you cannot do web check in ?
On the Sunwing website it says the web check in (at the Toronto end) can be done 4 hours before departure . Is that a typo....should it be 24 hours ?

Friends of ours just went to WDW via Sunwing and they did not have online check in it was old school with being able to check in at the desk at the airport.

4 hours is correct for Sumwing (not 24). Their way of trying to squeeze seat selection fees out of you!

I don't know where you are flying out of but we took sunwing from Ottawa to Orlando twice. Horrible both times. They didn't preclear customs so we had to clear customs in Orlando (huge hassle - actually terrible- Canadians are so lucky to preclear at home). They took our gate checked strollers through bag clearance I'm Orlando and we had a very long walk. Bad scheduling meant we were always delayed. So be prepared for issues with them.

We took Sunwing out of Toronto in August.
4hour pre-checkin - joke
Everyone is trying to log on website so then website locked up
Gave up,
Got to airport at 4:15am for 6:3O flight
3 agents at desk to check in the whole plane
Next onto USA CHECK baggage - new system went little smoother

TSA hours 4am to 9pm -
seriously, how many flights need to get thru US customs at that time of morning
TSA - crazy busy NOT many guards.
Once we cleared we had only enough time to quick bathroom break
Straight to plane once we got on 90% boarded

Sunwing agents and more TSA agents would have been nice

Not to nitpick, but the next TSA agent to work at Pearson will be the first one. You're thinking of US Customs and Border Protection.
